As #ASGSF is debated in Parliament today, we welcome @educationgovuk’s confirmation that funding will continue into 2026/27. We urge gov’t to work with voluntary & statutory agencies to expand access to the therapeutic support children & families rely on. coram.org.uk/news/coram-sig…

Cuts to the Adoption & Special Guardianship Support Fund are having a huge impact on families & the charities who support them. I’m grateful to Jenny at @thepurple_ele for speaking to me, alongside an adoptive mum who told of how vital therapy & ASGSF support is for her girls.

Really shocked at the government’s decision to reduce the FAL of the ASFSF to 40% per child with no funding for assessments. I understand that they are under pressure to reduce spending, but this is so shortsighted to target our most vulnerable & traumatised children. #adoption

Great news! But yes, let’s invest in longer term work to avoid the rollercoaster. It doesn’t help families.
